Rapid Reaction: Red-hot Maryland pulls away from Northwestern in 75-59 loss

Perfection is about as necessary of a condition for a road win in College Park as the letter “W.” It’s even more important when Maryland’s offensive play almost embodies that quality.

While No. 21 Northwestern (20-9, 11-7 B1G) kept up with the Terrapins (20-9, 11-7 B1G) in a first half that looked more like a track meet than a basketball game with the constant scoring from both teams, Maryland extended its remarkable shooting display in the second half to coast to a 75-59 victory over the Wildcats.

The Terps made 14 of 22 threes in the contest, a season high.
